    Hi, i have Upgraded my Zen Cart 1.3.8a to 1.3.9h, but it displays the warning page i must rename my Admin page from mywebsite.com/admin to mysebsite.com/somethingelse

    Is it possible to Keep original Admin Log in at mywebsite.com/admin?

    I know some people would say it is not recommended, but I do prefer it like this, hope somebody can help.
    Thanks

    It is only for you so change it
    Leaving it as admin is one step closer for a hacker to gain accessz

    Do you enjoy being hacked??

    Hi, on this site, i just want to keep it as it is.
    The only reason i have upgraded was because my website stopped working, because my host upgraded their servers PHP to a newer version, so now i need the new Zencart so it works.

    So it would be really appreciated if somebody can give me some pointers how i can leave the admin area at mywebsite.com/admin

    Thanks

    Simple: rename it as instructed. It is for your own protection.

    No. An upgrade involves more than just updating the database. You need to also update the PHP files. Full instructions are found at https://www.zen-cart.com/tutorials/index.php?article=98
